FlyFishin'Jam 0 Report post Posted September 12, 2012 Hello rainbowkiller, first off you should find some excellent fishing flies in the salmon and steelhead section here. Which fish in particular are you going to be targeting? I think small and sparse is a good starting point but are you fishing rivers? These should give you an excellent idea besides browsing the database on this forum (which is awesome)...Have fun and let us know whats nibbling! http://www.adiposflytying.com/freshwatersalmonflies.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlyFishin'Jam 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2012 Very interesting, obviously some nice flashy saltwater type flies will be in order - think i have an image of some we use for pinks off the beach with a big 80ft cast and double hand retrieve, just little clouser/ charlie type things. I needed to trim them down a bit but here... For the coho, for some reason i have got them on blue and silver, my buddy will also throw a great big spinner/ spoon in a pure silver colour and the coho's tend to kill it nicely. But this is in the rivers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
